Casa Museu Acre
About This Museum
People come to the Casa Museu Acre not for a sterile history lesson, but to feel the pulse of the rubber boom era that built this region. You walk through rooms preserved almost exactly as they were, from the grand dining table set for a formal dinner to the intimate, screened sleeping porch that hints at life in the Amazonian heat. It’s an incredibly personal experience, like you've been invited into a family home while they're just out for a stroll. The stories of the Ferreira family, who lived here, are woven into every creak of the floorboard and piece of original furniture.
Collection Highlights
The real highlight is the house itself—its original furniture, family photographs, and everyday objects tell a richer story than any plaque could. Don't miss the beautifully preserved phonograph in the main living area or the traditional medical kits that speak to life in a remote territory.
Visitor Information
It's located in a quiet, leafy neighborhood in Rio Branco; it feels like a hidden gem away from the city center. Just check their social media for current opening hours before you go, as it's a small operation.
Architecture & Building
A gorgeous example of Amazonian rubber baron architecture, this elevated wooden mansion is built to breathe, with tall windows, wide verandas, and intricate details that showcase its early 20th-century elegance.
